The clouds settle on the city
It’s a canopy for movie scenes
A backdrop full of hope and dreams
The harder they try, the further they fall
They’re learning their lines and waiting for calls
To be the next face that takes the place
Of the one you used to love

Here we go, here we go again this time
Did you leave your heart tonight on Hollywood and Vine?
In the corner of your mind she’s waiting for a ride
To the other side of Hollywood and Vine
You’re no longer anonymous
The shine of fame has turned to rust
And you're the one who’s wasted
Every single chance you never took

The longer they wait, the further they are
They got what it takes, no matter the part
To be the next face that takes the place
of the one you used to love

In the corner of your mind
She’s waiting for a ride
She’s leaving, she’s staying she just can’t take it
She’s leaving, she’s staying she just can’t take it
